LTE-A Analog Front-End (40nm)
The LTE-A Analog Front-End is a low-power and low die-area MIMO AFE for Wireless broadband applications such as LTE. The AFE can be customizable for numerous configurations such as 1x1, 2x1, 2x2.
The default configuration which is 1x1 as shown includes ultra-low power SAR IQADC and a current steering IQDAC. The clocks for the ADC and DAC are generated by a versatile low jitter integer mode PLL integrated as part of the AFE. A 10-bit ADC and an 11-bit DAC are also included to perform auxiliary functions.
The LTE-A Analog Front-End operates from a 1.1V/2.5V supply, and each of the components uses architectures ideally suited for fabrication in a 40nm CMOS process and in complex SoCs.
The LTE-A Analog Front-End does not require any special analog options, and can be cost-effectively ported across foundries, different MIMO configurations and process nodes upon request.
